Rufinamide derivatives as novel drugs against epilepsy syndromes caused by aberrant sodium channel behavior

Unmet NeedLennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS) is rare and severe form of childhood-onset epilepsy associated with various types of seizures and cognitive dysfunction that persist into adulthood; yet, to date, LGS management is challenged by the lack of reliable diagnostic tests and potentially grave side-effects of available therapeutics. Rufinamide is a...

Method for Treating Refractory Seizures Using a Novel Therapeutic Approach

Technology OverviewThe invention provides novel pharmaceutical interventions that convert phenobarbital (PB)-resistant seizures into phenobarbital responsive seizures in neonates. We have shown that unlike in adult brains, expression of a transport protein in the neonatal brain is much lower and undergoes further down-regulation following an ischemic...

Novel Triazole Compounds to Treat Nav1.6-related Brain Disorders

Unmet NeedAbnormal behavior of sodium (Nav) channels is linked to a variety of epilepsy syndromes, movement disorders, and neuropathic pain. While researchers continue to elucidate the roles of different Nav channel isoforms within a variety of neurological disorders, current therapeutics influence numerous Nav channel isoforms, resulting in off-target...
